Bye bye status. Hello check in. Foursquare one year on

Back in March last year I started using Foursquare, which was back then a US-only service that seemed to plug nicely into Twitter and which I heard all the right people had moved over to. In October it launched in the UK, and this month, it seems to have hit its first UK tipping point. From my login anyway, as much is happening on Foursquare every day that used to happen in an average week last year.

So could this be the making of Foursquare? Will its ability to link brands with users in a much smarter way than Twitter be its golden ticket?
